Is reversing the previous changes to tun.ko intentional?

Perhaps the previous approach with a new CONFIG_TUN_VNET is preferable
over this. In particular over making TUN select TAP, a new dependency.

Jason, you also commented about CONFIG_TUN_VNET for the previous version. Do you prefer the old approach, or the new one? (Or if you have another idea, please tell me.)
